Newbie Meet N' Greet

Meet n' Greet, smell my feet, gimme something good to eat! Unfortunately, the newbie meet and greet takes place the same time the command staff is congregating, so they might be a little late to the party.

But the crew is there to welcome the newcomers and explain their situation. At the end of the milling and spilling about, the command staff is going to start a general meeting to apprise everyone of their situation and discuss their next course of action:

Getting off the damn ship.

Slobo looked at Static warily.

"I know everyone thought I was dead... I was turned into a statue and sent forwards in time... Whattaya mean, disbanded?! I gave my life for that team!... Well... tried ta, anyways."

"So... time travel. That seems to have worked out for you pretty well. The team broke up the same time the Titans did. 'Course, most of young justice basically just formed a new team.. the Teen Titans." He fished in his pocket, pulling out his communicator. "I'm a member!"

"Okay then..." His mind spun for a moment, finally settling on something. He grabbed Virgil by the coat, a mad look of panic in his eyes. "What about 'Nita? "Empress?! IS she okay? Do you even know who she is?!"

Static grabbed Slobo's hands, slowly prying them off his coat. "Last thing I heard was her trying to start up a new team with few other ex-titans and failing. Couldn't tell you anything more. I've been too busy to keep track of everyone else's lives lately." Static dropped Slobo's hands and began smoothing the wrinkles out of his coat. "Anyway, that's not the point. What the heck are we doing here? And where is here, anyway?"

Slobo breathed deeply. She was okay. Most likely, Secret was fine, too, otherwise Sir Blurts-a-Lot would have said something.

"Crazy spaceship. Calls itself Stacy. Kidnapped us. That's as far as I got 'fore Cissie started glomping Bart like he was a runaway puppy." He looked down, thinking, and then returned his gaze to Static. "Alright, so we're essentially on the same team, with the same buddies, meanin' I can't frag ya, and should prolly get to know ya. Let's try this again." He offers his hand.

"I'm Slobo."

Static's eyes lit up and he grinned. "Bart's here? Wicked. He's always good times." He began to look around over Slobo's head to try and find him while Slobo let out his sigh. "Oh, uh, yeah. Virgil Hawkins, but I go by Static." He grabbed Slobo's hand and shook it, not too hard, exactly twice. The way a handshake is supposed to be done. "It's nice to meet the Top Teen in person."

"I 'preciate that. " He said as he returned the shake. "Static? What's yer power? Standin' perfectly still? Interruptin' television signals? Harnessing the power of shag carpeting?"

He's not even making fun. These are serious. Sadly.

Static smiled. "All that and more." He lets a charge run between his thumb and fore-finger. "I'm pretty sure I store and conduct ambient Electromagnetism. At least, that seems to be my consensus with Black Lightning. Basically, I play with electricity. I can fly with it, if I've got a good board."

"Niiiiiice. You must do some REAL damage with that one. Last time I got hit with lightning, it certainly stung." He smiled. "So, Young Justice is gone, Titans are in, 'Nita's okay... Anything else good happen after my 'death'?"

"Umm... well, yes. Plenty. There was the crisis, and the other crisis, and the war, and the darkseid club, Conor and Bart dying then coming back... Things've been busy. I mean, I haven't even spoken to my family in, like four months they've been so busy. I mean, sure, three of those I was being held as a gladiator by the Darkseid club, but still...You've got a lot to catch up on, my almost-albino friend." Static says, patting Slobo on the shoulder. "I'll explain over lunch, if we can get any. I'm starving."

"Same here. I haven't eaten in six fraggin' years. I'd KILL for a bacon cheeseburger right now. Assuming 'amazon Barbie' wasn't looking when I did. She still lecture on morality and then beat the snot outta people?" His stomach growled throughout this, suddenly realizing that being flesh again meant needing food.

"'Amazon Barbie?' Oh, Wonder Girl! Well, kinda. She's the team lead, so she's supposed to lecture about that stuff. But, we haven't really gotten into it since Eddie died..." Static seemed to fade off for a second, as his memories of Eddie's recent death played through his head again, for the millionth time. "New question: How, exactly, do we get to any consumables from here?"

"Not sure. I'm new here, and my guide is busy hugging a completely oblivious speedster. I was hoping Blue boy would know." He says as he points over Static's shoulder to Kon. "Cause, well, he looks well fed. Especially in comparison to the chicks around him."

Static snickered at the comment. "Well then, we have two choices. Interrupt a man who could throw us through walls and burn us to death with heat vision, or we go explore ourselves."

"I'd suggest the Sensoriums. The cafeteria food is pretty much just grayish slop, and while the food in the Sensoriums is exactly the same stuff it at least looks and tastes like food. I'm Danny by the way, Danny Phantom."

"Nice to meet you, Danny. I'm Static, and this is Slobo. Lead the way, m'man." Static extended his hand to Danny with a smile on his face and a growl in his stomach.
